ABSTRACT Introduction: Cardiovascular morbidity and mortality have been associated with different variables of anthropometric measurements. Aim: To find out the association of anthropometric measurements in the development of Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) and stroke among Type 2 diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). Materials and Methods: Three hundred subjects were included in the study out of which 100 subjects were known type 2 diabetics with CVD or Stroke (group 1), 100 subjects were type 2 diabetic patients (group 2) and 100 subjects were normal and healthy (group 3). Blood Pressure (BP), Body Mass Index (BMI) Neck Circumference (NC), Waist Circumference (WC), Hip Circumference (HC), Glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c), high sensitive- C-reactive protein (hsCRP), Malondialdehyde (MDA), Homocysteine (Hcy), microalbuminuria and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) were compared between all three groups by using one-way ANOVA test, comparison
between males and females by t-test and association was done by using chi-square test. Results: There were a significant difference in the means of anthropometric and biochemical parameters of the three groups (p
